Description: U.S. Army World War I - Company Barber - 1917: You don't join the military to become a military barber. Military barbers today are just licensed barbers in the employ of the federal government who cater to the military, according to BarberSchools.org. Barbering was phased out as a military occupational specialization, or MOS (Military Occupational Specialty), because it is a service occupation and having a good haircut is not considered mission critical to the U.S. Armed Forces. This White Border Era postcard, mailed in 1917 at a time when there was an Army Barber MOS. This White Border Era postcard, mailed in 1917, is in good condition but shows some franking on the image. Illustrated Post Card. New York. No. 1261-7.
